What Are Cascading OKR's and Do They Even Work?

Cascading OKRs is a strategic goal-setting framework where high-level objectives are broken down and aligned across different levels of an organization, ensuring alignment, focus, and accountability throughout the hierarchy.

The concept of cascading OKRs involves breaking down high-level objectives into smaller, more specific objectives and key results, which are then further cascaded down to individual teams and employees.

Company Level OKRs (Top-Level OKRs):

The process starts at the highest level of the organization, often with the executive team or senior leadership defining the company’s top-level objectives. These objectives are typically ambitious and strategic, reflecting the organization’s overall mission and vision.

Department/Team Level OKRs:

Once the company-level OKRs are defined, they are then cascaded down to various departments, teams, and units within the organization. Each of these units creates its own set of objectives that are aligned with and contribute to the achievement of the top-level objectives. These objectives should be specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART).

Individual Level OKRs:

From the department or team level, individual contributors define their own OKRs that align with their team’s objectives. These individual OKRs should directly support the team’s objectives and, in turn, contribute to the achievement of the company’s overarching goals.
